However, the protagonist of this performance, La Prietty, differs from Julia Roberts' film character: La Prietty is a transwoman and tells her story from beyond the grave. In an example of teatro-cabaret par excellence, the protagonist keeps the audience engaged through rapid costume changes, quick wit, and impeccable comedic timing. This essay focuses on how La Prietty filters her socio-politically driven humor through live musical performance, emphasizing US pop songs and their Divas from the 1990s. With her re-working of popular hits such as \"Like a Virgin\" and her story of discrimination, abuse, and hope for love, La Prietty captures the audience. An interdisciplinary framework is employed to analyze the piece's performance of an (after) life and to highlight how audio-visual transformations can resist the erasure of transwomen in contemporary Mexico and, on a broader scale, offer hope to marginalized Others.","PeriodicalId":41320,"journal":{"name":"LATIN AMERICAN THEATRE REVIEW","volume":"53 1","pages":"32 - 5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/ltr.2020.0012","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48899967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the headlines of notorious crimes, this play depicts the story of violated bodies during the military dictatorship in Chile and in the process unveils different dimensions of memory. In Historia de la sangre, testimonies are recognized as part of the construction of a collective memory in which individual and collective biographies overlap. In addition, this dramatic work disassembles the nation's narrative about gender classifications and family roles.","PeriodicalId":41320,"journal":{"name":"LATIN AMERICAN THEATRE REVIEW","volume":"53 1","pages":"33 - 56"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/ltr.2020.0013","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66302734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Taking into account Hans Thies-Lehmann's theories on postdramatic theatre and studies by Jean Graham-Jones, Brenda Werth, Cecilia Sosa, and others on the recent proliferation of documentary theatre in Buenos Aires, I analyze León's Las ideas in relation to the role of the artist and artistic creation in 21st-century Argentina, specifically the way the play addresses issues of reality and simulation in a world increasingly dominated by technology and misinformation. Through the guise of autofiction, Las ideas comically blurs the borders between fiction and reality, leading the spectators to reflect on their own role in constructing reality and countering censorship.","PeriodicalId":41320,"journal":{"name":"LATIN AMERICAN THEATRE REVIEW","volume":"53 1","pages":"57 - 80"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/ltr.2020.0000","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45792140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
